We are very sad to hear that Vera passed away. I was one of many friends who served at her wedding with Peter. I think this was in 1960. We lived on Rivercourt in East York from 1958 to 1975 when Vera and her family lived on Hopedale Ave. We also seen Vera and Peter many times at the Croatian picnics. They seemed very happy together. We will always cherish the happiest memories of the past, sincerely Marija and son Mark Iskric.
